LITTLETON — Front Range Christian’s girls basketball team is trending in the right direction.

Following a tough 2017-18 season, the Falcons have started the year 5-2 thanks to a recent 33-29 victory over Evangelical Christian on their home court on Saturday. They also defeated Rocky Mountain Lutheran 48-31 on Monday.

In the Evangelical Christian game, the Falcons dug deep late to stun the Eagles when the momentum seemed to favor the visiting team.

Every so often, a student-athlete comes around who seems like she can do it all. At Front Range Christian, that three-sport athlete is senior Meghan Sloan.

“She’s been fantastic,” athletic director and head girls soccer coach Eric Osberg said. “She’s been a constant, I guess you could say.

On Tuesday on its own home court, the senior- and junior-heavy Jaguar squad made 4A basketball look easy with a 60-26 victory over the visiting Conifer Lobos. Aside from the opening seconds of the game, the Jaguars kept full control and chipped away at Conifer’s chances of coming back with every swoosh of the nylon.

CENTENNIAL — It was difficult enough for Columbine sophomore Zach Schraeder to wait around Saturday. The 285-pound heavyweight struggled to stay loose before his semifinal match with Heritage’s Moises Islas, which didn’t take the mat until 2:49 p.m., nearly seven hours after the Arapahoe Invitational started.
“It was pretty difficult to start going again,” Schraeder said.
